Apologies if this is not the right place to post an idea but--

Any thoughts on having the ability for explorers to hack mobile warp disruptors to unanchor them? This -clearly- opens the door for the "OMG we could unanchor poses and citadels!" but yeah, the idea was more for bubbles. I guess if you wanted to go that route, you could have the most insane hacking minigame known to eve integrated.

Anyway back on track here.. bubbles/mobile depots? :)

I think it's a good idea.

Variations of the idea are usually posted once or twice a year. I believe players with max hacking skill level, hacking implants in hacking bonus ship fit with hacking upgrade mods should be able to hack into most everything.

Would be better to change the title to alert a CSM to move the thread to the Ideas Discussion section

It's.a good idea. The more avenues available in game to create content / professions the better. We can blow up things like bubbles jet cans and other anchored content destroying them and all they contain but no loot.

I think all should be hackable with a reinforce timer to allow defence by owner with a final hack to unanchored.

I wouldn't bother about the reinforce timer.

At the moment there is no disadvantage to leaving a bubble anchored.

If someone lands in it and then tries to warp away and is killed, the person that anchored the bubble gains a kill mail from it (even if they aren't online at the time).

Yet there is no lossmail when a bubble is destroyed.

So I'd allow hacking with no timer so that people can steal bubbles. That might cause some people to unanchor.

I'd also add lossmails too, but only because of the benefit provided from killmails that include the bubble. Better to just remove bubbles from killmails all together.

General philosophy - "We should be able to do just about anything we want."

I want to have a confusion power. I turn on my psykick confusion power and not even CONCORD can lock me. It could be a trainable skill w/implant combo. Then, when that bold few with 3 billion to spend on a skill book just concentrate....

Maybe a penalty could be...your AB won't work while you're in confusing mode....yeah...that's the ticket.

WOuld be nice if you could hack dead stuff in space, e.g old towers that have run out of fuel etc that then put the tower on a 24/48hr timer for the owner to reset if no reset is after that time then the tower is yours.

That;ll be CCL, not CSM, what moves threads about.

That said, BAMF!

Thread moved.

Good idea to incorporate hacking into other avenues, the mini-game is fun.

CCP Can you make a phone app so i can play the mini-game from my phone. Maybe link it to ingame characters. Eve has not perverted enough aspects of my life.

Seriously a phone ap for your mini game would be fun, with in game rewards.

Why? It is just a bubble. If you didn't place it, it usually is in your way anyways.


What would be funny is when you fail to hack a bubble, it goes boom and does a tad aoe damage like Ghost sites.

This is the law of ship progression!
